Austria vs Ghana LIVE: International friendly result, latest updates and fan reaction

Kevin Danso headed into Jonas Adjetey arms from close range, and Marcel Sabitzer converted from 12 yards after the referee pointed to the spot. That goal was the only difference come half-time, but Austria ran riot when they reemerged. Goals from Michael Gregoritsch and Stefan Posch put the result beyond doubt, before Jordan Ayew secured some consolation with a well-hit solo effort, but even that was matched as Nicolas Seiwald hit an even more impressive fifth from range for the hosts.

Beyond Paradise’s Humphrey faces ‘impossible decision’ as sad show exit ‘sealed’

Wales Online

Beyond Paradise viewers were left shocked as Humphrey Goodman faces an impossible decision in series 4 of the BBC crime drama

Beyond Paradise viewers were left devastated during Friday’s opening episode of series four following a major revelation about Humphrey Goodman.

In the latest instalment, Humphrey, portrayed by Kris Marshall, and his colleagues investigated the death of a crime novelist, whose passing bore an uncanny resemblance to events in his most recent book.

Humphrey, an avid admirer of the crime writer, was tasked with determining whether this was mere coincidence or deliberate murder.

Meanwhile, The Lily Bond drifted away, leaving Humphrey and his new bride Martha Lloyd, portrayed by Sally Bretton, at home with Martha’s mother Anne Lloyd, portrayed by Barbara Flynn, before visiting an ideal renovation property with sea views.

Yet the investigation and The Lily Bond’s departure proved the least of Humphrey’s concerns as he shared some heartbreaking news with his wife Martha, reports the Mirror.

Discussing his difficult day, Humphrey revealed he’d been summoned to a meeting where he faced an incredibly tough choice.

He explained: “They’re saying I’ve got to lose someone at the station. Apparently there should only be three of us at the station so I need to lose one of either Esther, Kelby or Margo…”

To which Martha said: “That’s awful! What will you do?” with Humphrey admitting: “I’ve no idea!”

A preview of next week’s episode shows Humphrey being pressed for his decision as he says: “Mr Smith, he’s still hounding me on a decision on who I’m going to let go…”

This comes as a synopsis for series four teases: “Beyond the station, Humphrey and Martha launch into married life as they search for a new place to call home, all whilst Humphrey faces mounting pressure when tasked with an impossible decision that will change his team forever.”

Viewers took to Twitter, now known as X, wasting no time in sharing their reactions to the storyline and speculating about who Humphrey will let go.

One viewer posted: “#beyondparadise He can’t fire anybody. They are a team”, while another wrote: “#BeyondParadise Uh oh” and a third speculated: “Guessing Humphrey will pick himself as the one to be made redundant and his boss will let them all stay. #BeyondParadise.”

Mary Rand: 1964 Olympic gold winner dies at age of 86

Published

Mary Rand in her California home

Mary Rand, the first British woman to win an Olympic gold medal in athletics, has died at the age of 86.

Rand secured the long jump title at the Tokyo Games in 1964, also winning silver in the inaugural women’s pentathlon and bronze in the 4x100m relay.

That meant she also became the first British woman to win gold, silver and bronze at a single Olympic Games.

In the long jump, Rand broke the British and Olympic records with her first leap of 6.59m and then smashed the world record on her fifth attempt with an effort of 6.76m.

“Mary was the most gifted athlete I ever saw,” said Ann Packer, who won 800m gold at the 1964 Olympics days after Rand’s triumph and was her room-mate in Tokyo.

“She was as good as athletes get. There has never been anything like her since – and I don’t believe there ever will.”

Rand, whose first husband was British rower Sydney Rand, also won long jump gold at the 1966 Commonwealth Games in Jamaica.

However, injury denied her the chance to defend her Olympic title in 1968 and she retired at the age of 28 the same year.

Born in Wells, Somerset, she was only 17 when she set her first British record in the pentathlon, and she won 12 national titles across long jump, high jump, sprint hurdles and pentathlon during her illustrious career.

Rand was voted the BBC Sports Personality of the Year in 1964 and was awarded an MBE in the 1965 New Year Honours List.

Boat boss jailed after death of two British teens in Greek parasailing accident

Published

Manchester Evening News

Nikos Mallios was handed a four-year prison sentence for health and safety breaches which led to the deaths of two British teens

The father of a schoolgirl who died in a Greek parasailing tragedy today (March 27) welcomed the “first steps to justice” after the boat operator was jailed.

Tony Hayes called it a “positive step in the right direction” after watersports boss Nikos Mallios, 57, was convicted of failings that led to the death of his daughter Jessica, 15, and Mikey Connelly, 13, the Mirror reported.

The pair died in October 2020 after Mallios took them out to sea in his speedboat despite an incoming storm. A three-member panel at the Misdemeanour Court of Rhodes was told the rope tethering them to Mr Mallios’ speedboat “detached”.

The boat pursued the parasail before it drifted into the water where eyewitnesses hoped they may be able to rescue the teens from the sea. But a “gust of wind” caught it and sent Jessica, Mikey and James crashing into rocks near Lindos, Rhodes.

Mallios was found guilty today of breaching health and safety laws over the tragedy and sentenced to four years in prison. He was temporarily released after indicating he would appeal.

In October he will face two more serious charges – manslaughter by serial negligence and grievous bodily harm by serial negligence – when he appears at a higher court in Kos.

But Tony, 43, welcomed the first conviction, saying: “It’s the first step on the journey to justice. Its a positive step in the right direction, one that Jess and Mikey will look down on and be proud.

“I am happy that a long sentence was given. However, the fight will continue and the next step is to take this to the higher court and make that sentence even longer.

“But doesn’t take away the loss. It doesn’t change the fact that Jess is not here. It doesn’t change the fact that Mikey is not here. It doesn’t change the fact that our lives have been ruined.

“We still have some distance to go. Even though the outcome moves us forward, it still doesn’t take away the emptiness that remains from the loss.”

Mallios took the stand as he finally issued an apology for the tragedy, saying: “I want to say sorry to the families.” But he denied any wrongdoing and tried to justify breaking rules forbidding triple-seat parasailing and taking kids under 14.

He also denied breaching guidelines by operating in bad weather and going outside of a designated watersports area.

But today the Greek justice system dismissed his denials and handed him a “significant sentence”. Tony, from Corby, Northants, said: “I look at [Mallios] and I don’t think he went out of his way to do this. He has had his life devastated as well.

“However he continues to defend some of his actions that day. I understand he feels bad and guilty but, for me, the apology would mean more if he just admitted he made a mistake. If he admitted he did something wrong.”

Tony went to the Greek island in 2020 with his wife Kayleigh, 39, for his father-in-law Phil’s surprise 65th birthday. The couple were on holiday with Kayleigh’s brother Phillip Connelly and wife Sharon – parents of James and Mikey. In the days before the accident, Jessica, Mikey and James played games and watched bands in the hotel.

On October 28 they booked on Mr Mallios’ boat in Lardos Bay after seeing the rides on a board in the hotel. The family said goodbye at 12.30pm on the beach outside the hotel, but never saw them again.

Rhodes Courthouse heard the rope “detached” and Mr Mallios began pursuing the parasail as “black clouds and dark skies” blew in. An eyewitnesses on the boat – who had been taken up in the air just moments earlier – said she was “relieved” when the parasail carrying the three teens started “drifting down and landed in the water”.

But she broke down in tears as she told the court that a “gust of wind caught the parasail”. She told the court: “We were speeding towards the children, for about two or three minutes. It had started drifting down and it landed in the water. We were relieved and thought we would be able to pull them aboard. But then a gust of wind caught the parasail and dragged it back up.”

Jessica, Mikey and James eventually crashed into the rocks at Cape Ginas, around 5km from where they left the shore. The British holidaymaker also gave evidence to say they were told they could go on an excursion but “we had to go immediately”.

She told the court: “They said we could go but we had to go immediately because a storm was coming and if we wanted to go then we had to go right now.” Other witnesses claimed they were in the water when a “terrible” storm blew in and caused the water to become “pretty choppy”.

Another witness told how his three children – aged just 12, nine, and seven – had been taken on a parasailing trip in the days leading up to the tragedy. He said he had repeatedly been told “it was the close of the season and storm was coming”. He told the court: “So if we wanted to do any watersports you needed to do it soon because it was about to close.”

Despite being at the centre of a criminal probe, Mallios was free to continue operating from the same spot where he picked up Jessica, Mikey and James. In 2022 the Mirror revealed he was taking boatload after boatload of thrillseekers out to sea on 75 Euro jaunts.

Local travel and food expert The Yorkshireman recently visited Hetty and Betty for a special coastal-themed afternoon tea and hailed it an “incredible creation” that “puts a spin on the Northern classic mealtime.”

In a video on social media, he shared: “Consisting of three tiers of fish and chip goodness, guests can tuck into a massive portion of fish and chips with mushy peas and bread, finished with the most delicious scones.

“All of course, presented on a huge cake stand.

“It’s easy to see why this is so popular here, we found the portions to be absolutely huge with massive pieces of cod served up with delicious chips, making it not only a great spot for a classic chippy tea, but one with a twist.

“The afternoon tea includes tea and coffee too.”

The Yorkshireman added: “They are also well known for their scones but its definitely a challenge saving room.

“If you can’t finish, you can of course take it home for later, but either way this was an amazing treat to enjoy in beautiful Whitby.”

Other customers seem equally impressed, with someone in a recent Tripadvisor review saying: “Just found it by chance, excellent service by a young lad and lady, very clean and spacious inside.

“We had the afternoon tea fish and chips for 2, mushy peas and bread and butter, a pot of tea, and a big cup of filter coffee, the fish was lovely and white and crispy batter, it only cost £25 altogether.

“Very good value for money, its hard to find somewhere decent these days, at a reasonable price. Thankyou.”

Another wrote: “Excellent stop for their Fish and Chip afternoon tea and it didn’t disappoint – there was so much we had to take the scones, jam and cream home for later!”

Meanwhile, this guest commented: “We were on holiday from Cornwall and came for the famous ‘Fish & Chip Afternoon Tea’ Wow, it was amazing!!
